Find out what’s going in the Limited Edition set for the Metal Gear Solid HD Collection this November.

It might not be the the colossal mega-load of goodies you might be getting with the Uncharted 3: Drake’s Deception Collectors’ Edition, but it’s not last week’s leftover tuna salad (eww) either . Welcome with open minds readers, the collectors edition for the Metal Gear Solid HD Collection arriving November 8th.

With the Metal Gear Solid HD Collection Limited Edition, Konami has gone with a more subtler approach, one that fans of the series will hopefully appreciate. No price has been giving yet (UPDATE AT BOTTOM) for the specialty gaming item, but what has been detailed is the rather eye-candy of a hardcover box with art from Metal Gear Solid series artist Yoji Shinkawa.

Mr. Shinkawa’s beautiful silhouette-esque imagery has been a notable trait, and an awesome one at that, for the KojiPro created games since the original PlayStation One release, and surely, it won’t just be used in this instance for just a box. Also included in the Limited Edition, is an exclusive 248-page art book by the illustrative master featuring art used through out every Metal Gear Solid title.

That’s about it. Yeah, not so much of a (air quotes) “Limited Edition,” but who knows, it might not be priced that much because of what’s offered. Although, I said (air quotes, again) “might” — so don’t go shooting the messenger if the powers that be decide to deal a bad hand. Heck, no one’s even forcing you to buy it either, so why be mad… just keep cool my babies! Ps3Maven out. Peace!

UPDATE: Some breaking info folks has just been giving to me and it turns out the Limited Edition will cost $79.99US. Meaning you’re only paying $20 more for an art book and a hardbook cover, which is not a bad deal honestly. Praise thy oh mighty gaming gods for your kindness!

The upcoming HD re-release of Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker, part of the Metal Gear Solid HD Collection, will support online coop ove the PSN.

According to sources, the new coop mode, called CO-Ops, will support, for the first time ever, up to four players to working together in a Metal Gear title on consoles. It hasn’t been revealed yet whether this new mode will be a modified version of the current campaign, or if it will be something new altogether. Though, it’s possible for the best case scenario that we get both. The original title was packed with content, so maybe the remaster will be jammed packed with even more.

One of the exciting things about this collection is that Playstation players who already own a copy of Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker on PSP can transfer their files to the PS3 remastered version, and keep their save data.

As well, the game is promised to be able to run at a smooth 60 frames per second, even during the four player coop mode, which is a nice upgrade from the original version.

More details are expected to be released sometime next week at the Tokyo Game Show, so stay tuned. The actual Meta Gear Solid HD Collection will be released in Novemeber.
